Sun-Times' Stella Foster Brings out Record Crowd for her Dante Award Honor

Chicago Sun Times columnist Stella Foster was honored by the Joint Civic Committee of Italian Americans with the coveted Dante Award at Galleria Marchetti on May 17th. There were so many in attendance that the valet parkers had to close up shop for lack of space! Every year, the Human Relations Committee presents the Dante Award to a member of the local news media who fulfills Italian philosopher Dante Alighieri's call to be "no timid friend to truth." And we sure know our Stella is NOT afraid of the truth! I love her column (who doesn't?) with her tagline "Yeah, I said it"!
